Overview: Article mentions that ISO's SPC guidance will help one in implementation. For a number of industries, statistical process control (SPC) is an activity critical to effectively operating a quality management system and to satisfying customer requirements for product quantity as well as quality. SPC is a well-established quality management tool, and some sectors have had SPC reference manuals for use in meeting QMS requirements for some time. Despite the existence of the ISO 9000 series since 1987, the International Organization for Standardization has not had a good SPC guidance standard to support this critical QMS activity. This situation should soon be rectified when ISO 11462-1:2001 is published by ISO as a new standard. Hence, when it becomes available in the near future, organizations will find ISO 11462-1 useful in developing their QMSs for both compliance with ISO 9001 and for achieving improvements.
